Tonight the two-time Olympian will notch game 400 in Hawks colours when his side hosts the Perth Wildcats.

Saville reached 395 games with Wollongong before joining the ill-fated Kings at the start of the 2007-08 NBL season.

When the Kings folded in June, Saville took up a two-year offer with the Hawks and his journey to 400 resumed.

"When I signed a three-year contract with the Kings, I thought maybe I could stay for three years and hopefully play out my career in Wollongong.

"It just happened quicker than I thought it would," the 32-year-old said as he took time out to jam with mate Mick Boyle yesterday.

As Wollongong's all-time leader in points, rebounds, assists, steals and blocks, Saville is closing in on 6000 career points and 3500 career rebounds, requiring 49 and 15 respectively.

He held the club record for games played before being overtaken by Hawks captain Mat Campbell last season. One-club man Campbell plays his 410th game tonight.

"I'm still behind Campbell and it might be hard to catch him, but I had my little one-year hiatus and 400 games at one club isn't bad," Saville said.

"Hopefully we can get a win so it'll be one to remember. It's an important game because we need to get a win at home.

"We need to get back on track because we've got a tough road trip back to Perth next week."

Also reaching a personal milestone tonight will be Eric Cooks, who will notch his 50th game as Hawks coach.

Cooks played 119 games for the Hawks between 1997-2000 before serving a seven-year apprenticeship as an assistant coach under former coach Brendan Joyce.
